In a world that strives for CO2 neutrality, Circonica is developing a component that can help the Netherlands lead the way in the energy transition. At the heart of this initiative is the Hollow Electrode Loose Stacking Solid-Oxide Fuel Cell (HELP-SOFC), a groundbreaking fuel cell technology from Circonica. This technology promises to revolutionise cost, energy efficiency, and reliability, while reducing CO2 emissions by 70-100%.
The existing proof-of-concept of the HELP-SOFC is unique in its kind due to its versatility in fuel use, from fossil fuels to biofuels and hydrogen, allowing it to perform optimally and achieve impact during all phases of the energy transition. In addition, the system can act as a fuel cell and/or electrolyser for hydrogen production, making it particularly suitable for many applications.
Together with its partners within projects such as TSE (completed), GTD-H (ongoing) and the NGF-4 application for rSOC-NL with, among others, VDL, Bosal, TNO, RUG and 12 others, Circonica strives to achieve a cost breakthrough for mass production of SOFC/SOE with the HELP concept. First in stationary applications (built environment), such as powering cable networks and micro-CHP systems. Then in markets for hydrogen mobility and electrolysis. To this end, Circonica search to link up with partners with knowledge, infrastructure, maritime and petrochemical activities, but especially ambitions in the field of hydrogen and its applications.
